From here:
Canterbury, England – In a move to create an “opportunity for dialogue and depth,” the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, and Sri Shruti Dharma Das Ji launched the Hindu Christian Forum today at Lambeth Palace, according to a Church of England news release.
“The conversation of interfaith dialogue is always one where we look eagerly and expectantly for enrichment. We’re not playing for victory, we’re seeking understanding from one another…by learning the depth of one another’s commitment and vision; dialogue and depth is what we all hope for,” said Williams.
Perish the thought of “playing for victory”, that would imply that Christianity is true and Hinduism isn’t, an idea whose insensitivity would shrivel the inclusion addicted sensibilities of Anglican prelates from coast to coast.
And we wonder why our Church is dying.
Exactly.
If we’re not ‘playing for victory’ – we should do everyone a favour and close up shop and go home.
